Mycelium GPU for Developers

The Energy Behind Intelligence

Overview

Mycelium GPU provides unified access to distributed GPU acceleration across the ThreeFold Grid. It transforms fragmented GPU resources into a single sovereign fabric for running AI, ML, and rendering workloads.

Core Concept

Mycelium GPU unifies distributed acceleration into a single sovereign fabric — turning fragmented hardware into one adaptive intelligence layer. Run AI, ML, and rendering workloads anywhere, from edge to core, with deterministic performance and transparent cost.

Key Principles

  • No Silos: All GPU resources accessible through single interface
  • No Intermediaries: Direct access to GPU resources
  • Raw, Verifiable Power: Every GPU cycle cryptographically verified
  • Orchestrated Through Code: GPU resources managed through APIs and smart contracts
